Three new sections inserted into <OpcUaEndpointEditor>:
1. Authentication (between the existing Connection row and Timing)
- 'Enable Authentication' button when Config.UserIdentity is null
- TokenType select (Anonymous / UsernamePassword / X509Certificate)
- Conditional Username + Password inputs for UsernamePassword
- Conditional Certificate path + Certificate password for X509Certificate
- 'Remove Authentication' button
2. Advanced subscription (after the existing Subscription row)
- Subscription display name (text)
- Subscription priority (number 0-255)
- Timestamps to return (Source / Server / Both select)
- Discard oldest (checkbox)
3. Deadband filter (after Advanced subscription)
- 'Enable Deadband' button when Config.Deadband is null
- Type select (Absolute / Percent), Value number input
- 'Remove Deadband' button
EnableAuthentication and EnableDeadband helpers complement EnableHeartbeat.
All new fields use the existing RenderFieldError helper for validator errors.
82/82 CentralUI tests pass (the 10 new editor tests drove the design).
Brings the Data Connections admin page up to the same UX standard as the
Topology page:
- Search box with dim non-matches (opacity 0.4, shape preserved)
- Toolbar: + Connection (disabled until a site is selected), Refresh,
Expand, Collapse
- Site context menu gains "Add Connection here" that navigates with
?siteId= so the form preselects + locks the Site field
- Form gains "Primary Endpoint" / "Backup Endpoint" h6 subsection
headers matching the SiteForm convention; Failover Retry Count moved
inside the Backup subsection
- URL renamed: /admin/connections (primary) + /admin/data-connections
(legacy secondary @page). Same dual-route treatment on the form
- Nav label: "Data Connections" -> "Connections"
- Adds DataConnectionsPageTests bUnit suite (6 tests)
Single /deployment/topology page replaces /deployment/instances (legacy URL
preserved as a secondary @page directive) and the /admin/areas* CRUD pages.
TreeView with Site → Area → Instance, V1–V7 visual guide (bi-building /
bi-diagram-3 / bi-box), always-visible empty containers, search dim, F2
inline area rename, and right-click context menus per node kind (Add Area,
Move to Area…, lifecycle actions, etc.).
Adds AreaService.MoveAreaAsync with cycle prevention, same-site enforcement,
and name-collision check at the new parent. Instance rename intentionally
out of scope — UniqueName is the site-side actor identity, requires its own
design pass.
Right-click a template now offers "New Derived Template" — opens
TemplateCreate with the parent pre-selected via a new ?parentId query
parameter. Composition rows in the tree drop the trailing
"→ TargetName" muted text; the kind glyph plus the instance name carry
enough meaning, and the composed template is one click away from the
row's right-click menu.
Template inheritance is set once at create time and immutable on update.
UpdateTemplateAsync now returns "Parent template cannot be changed after
creation." when the caller sends a parent that differs from the stored
value — server-side enforcement covers UI, ManagementService, and CLI.
TemplateEdit renders the parent as static plaintext rather than an
editable dropdown; TemplateCreate's parent picker is unchanged.
Templates page is now a tree-only browser; editing happens on a dedicated
TemplateEdit page. Drag-drop is replaced by context-menu Move-to-Folder.
TreeView gains Bootstrap Icons (chevron + per-kind glyphs), ancestor guide
lines, defined hover/selected/focus tokens, and Escape-dismisses-menu per
the new Visual Design Guide (V1-V7) in Component-TreeView.md.
The previous fix tried to defer page-side RevealNode to the second
render so TreeView's async sessionStorage load could finish first. In
practice Blazor Server didn't always fire a second OnAfterRenderAsync
on the page after the deep-link load, so the reveal never ran.
Real fix: change TreeView's storage-load to UNION the restored keys
with whatever's already in _expandedKeys, instead of REPLACING. That
way the page can call RevealNode whenever it wants and the storage
restore can't clobber the reveal regardless of completion order. The
page-side guard simplifies back to a one-shot reveal on first render.
Semantic note: if a deep-link reveal expands an ancestor that the user
had previously collapsed, the deep link wins. Intentional — the URL
expresses the navigation intent.
Both page.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender=true) and
TreeView.OnAfterRenderAsync(firstRender=true) ran concurrently:
- Page called RevealNode → added ancestor keys to _expandedKeys
- TreeView awaited treeviewStorage.load → replaced _expandedKeys with
the persisted set (often empty if user collapsed before navigating)
Whichever JS interop completed second won. When TreeView won, the deep-link
reveal silently lost. Gate the reveal on firstRender==false so it runs
strictly after TreeView's restore is done.
Without stopPropagation, dropping a template onto a folder fires both
OnDrop(folder) and OnDropOnRoot via event bubbling. The two async handlers
race on the same scoped DbContext, which is not thread-safe — the second
throws ObjectDisposedException and tears down the Blazor circuit. Surfaced
during browser smoke testing via JS-dispatched DragEvent sequence.
Smoke testing revealed two issues introduced by the modal extraction commit:
1. ErrorMessage / InitialName / TemplateName parameters on the dialog
components were passed as bare strings (e.g. ErrorMessage="_newFolderError")
instead of dereferenced C# expressions (ErrorMessage="@_newFolderError").
Razor treats unquoted-but-not-@-prefixed values to string parameters as
string literals — so the error block rendered the literal field name in
red whenever the modal opened. Non-string parameters (int/IEnumerable)
were fine since Razor treats those as C# expressions by default.
2. The Templates header + 4-button toolbar shared one flex row, but at
col-md-4 / col-lg-3 width the buttons overflowed into the right-column
empty-state area. Stack title above a full-width btn-group instead.
LmxProxy is no longer needed. Moved the entire lmxproxy/ workspace, DCL
adapter files, and related docs to deprecated/. Removed LmxProxy registration
from DataConnectionFactory, project reference from DCL, protocol option from
UI, and cleaned up all requirement docs.
Add NodeStatus record, IClusterNodeProvider interface, and AkkaClusterNodeProvider
that queries Akka cluster membership for all site-role nodes. HealthReportSender
populates ClusterNodes before each report. UI shows a row per node with
hostname, Online/Offline badge, and Primary/Standby badge. Falls back to
single-node display if ClusterNodes is not populated.
New fields in SiteHealthReport: NodeHostname, DataConnectionEndpoints
(primary/secondary), DataConnectionTagQuality (good/bad/uncertain),
ParkedMessageCount. New collector methods to populate them.
Health dashboard redesigned to match mockup: Nodes | Data Connections
(with per-connection tag quality) | Instances + S&F Buffers | Error
Counts + Parked Messages. Site names resolved from repository.
Keys from KeySelector (e.g. boxed int) were compared against string keys
restored from sessionStorage, causing expansion state to be lost on
navigation. All keys are now normalized to strings internally.
Areas page now shows a single TreeView with sites as roots and areas as
children. Context menus: sites get "Add Area", areas get "Add Child Area",
"Edit Area", "Delete Area" — each navigating to a dedicated page.
The Delete Area page shows a TreeView of the area and all recursive children
with assigned instances. Deletion is blocked if any instances are assigned
to the area or its descendants.
Move connection bindings, attribute overrides, and area assignment from
inline expandable rows on the Instances table to a separate page at
/deployment/instances/{id}/configure for a cleaner, less cramped UX.
ArrayValue from LmxProxy client was showing as type name in debug views.
Added ValueFormatter utility and NormalizeValue in LmxProxyDataConnection
to convert arrays at the adapter boundary. DateTime arrays remain as
"System.DateTime[]" due to server-side v1 string serialization.
Replace SiteDataConnectionAssignment join table with a direct SiteId FK on DataConnection,
simplifying the data model, repositories, UI, CLI, and deployment service.
Move all CRUD create/edit forms from inline on list pages to dedicated form pages
with back-button navigation and post-save redirect. Add Playwright Docker container
(browser server on port 3000) with 25 passing E2E tests covering login, navigation,
and site CRUD workflows. Add POST /auth/token endpoint for clean JWT retrieval.
The debug view polled every 2s by re-subscribing for full snapshots. Now a
persistent DebugStreamBridgeActor on central subscribes once and receives
incremental Akka stream events from the site, forwarding them to the Blazor
component via callbacks and to the CLI via a new SignalR hub at
/hubs/debug-stream. Adds `debug stream` CLI command with auto-reconnect.
